[quote=Anonymous]Two guesses: 1. The rash is a reaction to the MMR. Harmless and common. The conjunctivitis is unrelated and was probably acquired in daycare (it's extremely contagious). 2. The rash and fever were caused by a common virus like roseola (there are a lot of viruses that also very contagious and easy to catch from a well visit -- both of my kids got roseola after their 9- and 12-month well visits, respectively, and incubation period for it matches your timeline, but there are other viruses that cause rashes in babies as well). Conjunctivitis was unrelated. Unless, OP, you have been traveling recently or had contact with international travelers or say, Amish unvaccinated people? If your baby is resting now, wait until the pediatrician's office opens and take him in then. Good luck, it stinks when they are sick![/quote]
